This is a special one for me as Liz was one of my first yoga teachers when I started my practice over 10 years ago now. And yoga was truly the gateway into my own journey of healing and self-discovery.

And Liz is also one of the most kind, loving and wise humans I know.

Liz first began practicing yoga at the age of 16 in her home town in England. And fast forward, upon completion of her Ph.D. in 2013, she stepped into dedicating herself to learning and teaching the traditional practices of Ashtanga yoga.

In 2023, Elizabeth founded Ashtanga Yoga Lisbon where she teaches a daily Mysore program in the heart of Lisbon.

One thing I personally love about Liz is that she combines her education in medical sciences with the traditional science of yoga. Her research in Immunology influences her teachings, as Elizabeth uniquely educates and guides yoga as a practice of health with care.

In this episode we dive into:
✨Liz's own self-discovery journey and trusting her own inner voice, especially when it came to the decision to make yoga her full-time living
✨Yoga as a practice to come back home to yourself. Getting to know your body and yourself on an intimate level.
✨Combining yoga with science
✨Navigating the journey of doing what you love. Following your own path. And remembering your purpose
✨Grief.  Liz shares her experience with finding out her mum was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor in 2021 and dealing with her recent passing
